France Gall - Poupée de cire, poupée de son (TVE 1970, restaurée)

[etebas12]

je me rappelle de la visit de France Gall a Terre Des Hommes a Montreal en 1969. Comme tout adolescent de 14 ans a l epoque je crois que France Galle tait la plus grande ambassadrice de la langue Francaise aux monde. Quelle beaux souvenirs. merci claudius

salut de Quebec

Thanks Claudus. And I now notice she's standing in front of a big sign that says France Gall also. Doh!

[fioncen]

surely this isn't france gall? She looks totally different!

[Claudus1943]

@fioncen She is simply 5 years old more than during Grand Prix of the Eurovision, but it is really her in 1970

i never heard the sort of "castanets" sound untill today (in the right side)

[SouthofVenus]

amazing stage presence

[Claudus1943]

@TheMauvetys Il s'agit ici de la version stéréo, les castagnettes sont présentes aussi dans la version mono, mais on les distingue moins bien.

[TheMauvetys]

ça alors, je ne m'en étais pas aperçue

Haut de classe!

Quelle belle trouvaille Claude! Je n'avais jamais vu cette video et de plus comme d'habitude ta restauration image et son est parfaite!! Dommage que ce n'etait pas en couleur... Par contre tu es sur pour l'annee (lol c'est reparti),car encore une fois vu la coiffure j'aurai dit l'annee d'apres??

Thank you, Claude! As far as I can understand, this must have been one of the last times FG did a TV performance of Poupée de cire, poupée de son? I see if she wanted to move onwards but still it's a great song. I didn't knew it was inspired by Beethoven, are you sure it was sonata no. 1?

[Claudus1943]

@Fnatman Hello Thomas. No, it was not her last performance of "Poupée de cire", it is in the TV program "Cadet Rousselle" of December 19th, 1971 that she sang it (in live) for last time, as well as " Sacré Charlemagne " (in live also)

Yes, I'm sure, search on Youtube : "Beethoven Piano Sonata #1 In F Minor, Op. 2, No.1 - 4. Prestissimo by Daniel Barenboim"

The musical sentence is repeated several times, the first one in 0:40

[Fnatman]

@Claudus1943 Thanks for the info, I can hear the resemblance now in movement 4, about 0:40 as you say. Oh, "Cadet Rousselle" was the program where she sang with Claude Francois, I see now :) Love that one too.

[Claudus1943]

@Fnatman

No, "Cadet Rousselle" is not the TV program where she sings "Poupée de cire" in live with Claude François

The TV program "Cadet Rousselle" was broadcasted on December 19th, 1972. France sang " Sacré Charlemagne " and "Poupée de cire" in live.

With Claude François, it's the TV program "Top à Claude François " of September 14th, 1974 in which they sang a medley of their songs... among which "Poupée de cire"

@Claudus1943

Thanks for the clarification, Claude. I guess I haven't seen the "Cadet Rousselle" clip then. Would love to :)

[Claudus1943]

@Fnatman

Good idea! I shall think of it

[Claudus1943]

@tou825 Thank you.

Yes, Serge Gainsbourg was inspired by the sonata n°1 of Beethoven to compose "Poupée de cire, poupée de son"
